About 8E097CZ

8E097CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a other procedures procedure on the head and neck region using a via natural or artificial opening approach with robotic assisted procedure. In ICD-10-PCS, other procedures means methodologies which attempt to remediate or cure a disorder or disease.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other and unspecified robotic assisted procedure, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (17.49).

For a different body part, codes include 8E0W7CZ (trunk region).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 8E090CZ (open), 8E093CZ (percutaneous), 8E094CZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 8E098CZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 8E09XCZ (external).

With a different device, use 8E097EZ (fluorescence guided procedure).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
